The feel of the route
Bonnefont spring: The Loire gorges hold many secrets. The secret of this iron-rich spring, with its many benefits, is one of them. If you would like to taste the water, wear good shoes and head down into the gorges.
On the banks of the Loire, a small hut shelters the renowned spring. The taste is not very pleasant but, they say, it has many healing properties.
